Famous quotes containing the words world and/or record:
“Attainment and science, retainment and art—the two couples keep to themselves, but when they do meet, nothing else in the world matters.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one’s own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilised form of autobiography.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
